In Pudu, there is this famous Hainanese Kopitiam that used to operate inside the Pudu Pasar which is Ah Weng Koh Hainan Tea 阿榮哥海南茶. Since there was a new Pudu wet market that being build to replace the old one, most of all the classic famous market street food had move into this ICC Pudu building. . [I still like the old classic pasar feel(click here)]. Of course in here is cleaner and cooler.
Currently it is helm by second generation if I am not mistaken, that is a shop that had been operating more than 40 years.
Well, many regard them as one of the best Hainanse Coffee shop that you can get in KL. It is well known not only till attracted local tourist yet many foreign tourist too.
If you come during long holiday, do prepare to fight for a table. It is a warzone!
this is their menu. The classic Haianese breakfast set that you need to order is 3 items.
- Signature Hainaese Tea/ Cham (means coffee mix tea)
- Signature Kaya Butter toast
- soft boiled egg
It can be so busy till you have to pick up yourself.
Inside this kopitiam, there are a few other stalls too.
I find that the yong tau foo is pretty good too.
and of course not to miss this Famous Sisters crispy Popiah. Is a must have when you are here! Looks like of their very early stores?
Every single bite that gives you softness of the popiah skin, fragrant sweetness of the sengkuang, and the crispy bits in it. I usually finish whole plate myself.
My usual order. Cham coffee + Signature hainaese tea + kaya butter toast.
If you are here during long weekend, do prepare for this crazy crowd. If you are tourist looking for breakfast in KL, this is one of a classic place to be. Tons of local food for your breakfast as you walk towards behind, you will easily find another 50 stalls.
Some people say its so so and some say its very good. Again depends on your taste bud. My foriegn friends prefer Ho Kaw which is at China Town, Petaling Street.
Happy eating.
